A receipt space is formed between the top chassis 202 and mold frame 204 and the bottom chassis 112 to receive the display panel 210 and back light unit 260. By coupling together the top chassis 202, the mold frame 204 and the bottom chassis 112, the display panel 210 and back light unit 260 are fixed in place.

Referring now to FIGS. 3 to 7, operation of the display module 110 is controlled by the main board 120 and the inverter board 130. The main board 120 is electrically connected with the display panel 210 of the display module 110, and the inverter board 130 is electrically connected with both of the back light unit 260 as well as the main board 120. The connections of the main board 120 and the inverter board 130 are discussed in greater detail below.

The main board 120 controls the overall operation of the display module 110, as described in greater detail below. The main board 120 is connected with the panel actuating part 116 of the display panel 210 via a first cable 152. More specifically, a rear surface of the flexible PCB 118 is folded over a top portion of the bottom chassis such that the rear surface of the flex PCB is disposed flush against the rear surface of the bottom chassis 112. One end of the first cable 152 is connected to a first cable terminal 133 of the main board 120 while the other end of the main cable 152 is connected to the actuator terminal 117 such that main board 120 is connected to the panel actuating part 116. Additionally, the main board 120 is connected with a menu button part 175 provided at one side of the display module 110 via a second cable 154.

The inverter board 130 is directly connected to the left side of the main board 120 to provide an electrical communication interface therebetween. More specifically, a connection of the inverter board 130 to the left side of the main board 120 is achieved by fitting a main board connection terminal 132 provided at the right side of the inverter board 130 and an inverter board connection terminal 122 provided at the left side of the main board 120 to each other.

The main board 120 includes an input unit 123 to which an external signal is input, an output unit 126 from which a signal is output, and a power input unit 129 to which power is input.

The input unit 123 include a Digital Visual Interface (DVI) input unit 124 to which an image signal is input. The input unit 123 also includes a High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) input unit 125 that provides an alternative input interface to which an image signal and an audio signal are input. The DVI input unit 124 and the HDMI input unit 125 are provided in a terminal type, respectively. External equipment, such as a computer or a DVD player, is connected to each of the DVI input unit 124 and the HDMI input unit 125 so that an external signal is input to each of the DVI input unit 124 and the HDMI input unit 125.

The output unit 126 includes a speaker output unit 127 from which an audio signal is output, and an optical output unit 128 from which an audio signal and an image signal are output. The speaker output unit 127 and the optical output unit 128 are provided in a terminal type, respectively. External speakers or headphones may be connected to each of the speaker output unit 127 and the optical output unit 128.

The inverter board 130 is electrically connected to the main board 120 via the main board terminal 130 and board connection terminal 132, as mentioned above. Accordingly, the main board 120 may control the inverter board 130 to supply power to the back light unit 260. The inverter board 130 is connected to the back light unit 260 by a third cable 156, as discussed further below.

The bracket 140 is provided to support and fix the main board 120 and the inverter board 130 to the bottom chassis 112. Additionally, the bracket may block electromagnetic waves that could interfere with electrical operations of the main board 120 and the inverter board 130. More specifically, the bracket 140 includes a shielding part 142 provided at one side that may inhibit electromagnetic waves from traveling therethrough. The shielding part further includes an inverter board holding part 144 and a supporting and fixing part 148. The inverter board holding part 144 is provided at the opposite side of the shielding part 142 to allow the inverter board 130 to be inserted therein. The support and fixing part 148 is provided under the inverter board holding part 144 to support the bracket 140 and to fix the bracket 140 to the inside of the display device 1.

The main board 120 may be fixed to the inside of the shielding part 142 using, for example, bolts (not shown), and a plurality of through holes 143 to expose the input unit 123, the output unit 126, and the power input unit 129 to the outside are formed through the lower portion of the shielding part 142. The shielding part 142 serves to receive and surround the main board 120, while simultaneously inhibiting the reception of electromagnetic waves. The shielding part 142 may be made of material, including, but not limited to, metal, foam, and plasma, and ionized gas. In this case, the shielding part 142 may also surround the inverter board 130 as well as the main board 120 so as to inhibit electromagnetic waves received by the inverter board 130. However, although the shielding part 142 may shield only the main board 120, as in at least one exemplary embodiment of the present general inventive concept, a sufficient electromagnetic wave blocking effect may be achieved. Further, in order to minimize a protruded portion of the back cover 180, which will be described later, and to obtain a compact structure of the display device 1, at least one exemplary embodiment provides the shielding part 142 to surround only the main board 120.

The inverter board 130 is seated on the inverter board holding part 144 when the inverter board 130 is fitted to the main board 120 connected to the inside of the shielding part 142. That is, when the main board 120 is connected to the inside of the shielding part 142, the inverter board 130 approaches the left side of the main board 120, and is connected with the main board 120 by fitting the main board connection terminal 132 and the inverter board connection terminal 122 to each other. Here, the inverter board 130 may be guided into position via side guides 145 a, 145 b, and 145 c that guide a side surface of the inverter board 130, an upper guide 146 guiding the upper surface of the inverter board 130, and a lower guide 147 guiding the lower surface of the inverter board 130, thus being easily seated on the inverter board holding part 144, as illustrated in FIG. 6.

The support and fixing part 148 is extended from the lower portion of the inverter board holding part 144 and reaches the lower edge of the front cover 160. Fixing protrusions 164 a and 164 b protruded from the lower edge of the front cover 160 are inserted into fixing holes 149 a and 149 b formed on the lower portion of the support and fixing part 148. When the fixing protrusions 164 a and 164 b are inserted into the fixing holes 149 a and 149 b, the bracket 140 is temporarily fixed to the rear surface of the display module 110. Thus, when the back cover 180 is connected to the display module 110, the bracket 140 is completely fixed to the rear surface of the display module 110. That is, the position of the support and fixing part 148 is guided by inserting the fixing protrusions 164 a and 164 b into the fixing holes 149 a and 149 b.

The bracket 140, as shown in FIG. 7, includes electromagnetic wave blocking gaskets 141 a, 141 b, 141 c, and 141 d provided between the bracket 140 and the display module 110 to inhibit electromagnetic waves from passing therethrough. Accordingly, an electromagnetic wave blocking effect of the bracket 140 may be enhanced by the electromagnetic wave blocking gaskets 141 a, 141 b, 141 c, and 141 d.

As described above, by directly connecting the main board 120 and the inverter board 130 such that the bracket 140 including the shielding part 142 and the inverter board holding part 144, and the support and fixing part 148 supports the connected main board 120 and inverter board 130, the internal structure of the display device 1 is simplified and compact. Accordingly, a slimmer display device 1 may be achieved.

FIG. 8A is a view illustrating a disposed state of the third cable, while FIG. 8B is an exploded perspective view of a bottom chassis and a back light unit prior to being connected to one another.

As shown in FIGS. 8A-8B, the bottom chassis 112 includes a cable receipt groove 113 to receive the third cable 156 that connects the inverter board 130 to the back light unit 260. The bottom chassis 112 further includes a plurality of third cable parts 156 a, 156 b to access a portion of the third cable 156.

The cable receipt groove 113 may be formed by binding one of the third cable parts 156 a disposed on the upper portion of the display module 110 and connected with the lamp unit 265 a, and the other third cable part 156 b disposed on the lower portion of the display module 110 and connected with the lamp unit 265 b. More specifically, each of the lamp units 265 a, 265 b may include contact portions 157 a, 157 b disposed on upper and lower portions of the back light unit 260 to contact a respective third cable part 156 a, 156 b, such that back light unit 260 may be electrically connected to the third cable 156, as shown in FIG. 8B. Accordingly, the third cable parts 156 a and 156 b may be connected to the inverter board 130 via the third cable 156 such that the inverter board 130 may control operation of the lamp units 165 a, 165 b of the back light unit 260.

Cable receipt groove entrance holes 114 a and 114 b, through which the third cable parts 156 a and 156 b enter the cable receipt groove 113, may be formed on the upper and lower portions of the bottom chassis 112, and a cable receipt groove discharge hole 115, through which the third cable 156 having passed through the cable receipt groove 113 is discharged, may be formed at the center of the bottom chassis 112. Accordingly, the receipt groove 113 allows internal wiring of the display device 1 to be simple and compact.

FIG. 9 is a view illustrating an internal connection structure of the display device 1.

As shown in FIG. 9, the front cover 160 and the back cover 180 may be coupled together, for example, in a snap-fit manner. That is, in at least one exemplary embodiment illustrated in FIG. 9, the front cover 160 and the back cover 180 are connected in a snap-fit manner such that the display module 110 is disposed between the front cover 160 and the back cover 180, thereby allowing the display device 1 to be conveniently assembled.

In the exemplary embodiment illustrated in FIG. 9, a plurality of first hooks 166 and a plurality of corresponding second hooks 186 are provided to achieve the connection in the snap-fit manner. More specifically, a plurality of first hooks 166 may be formed at the edge of the front cover 160, and a plurality of second hooks 186 may be formed at the edge of the back cover 180. The first hooks 166 and the second hooks 186 may interconnect each other, thereby coupling the front cover 160 and the back cover 180. Further, in order to facilitate the connection of the first hooks 166 and the second hooks 186, a plurality of insertion guides 168 separated from the first hooks 166 may be provided on the front cover 160

Due to the above simple connecting process of the front cover 160 and the back cover 180, an assembly process of the display device 1 is simplified and assembly efficiency of the display device 1 is enhanced.

FIG. 10 is a perspective view illustrating the inner surface of the back cover.

As shown in an exemplary embodiment of FIG. 10, the back cover 180 includes a reinforcing bracket 185 formed on the inner surface thereof to reinforce the strength of the back cover 180. The reinforcing bracket 185 is provided around the lower end of the central portion of the inner surface of the back cover 180 may be directly connected with the stand 195 to reinforce the strength of the back cover 180.

Further, a circular bracket receipt part 190 is provided at the center of the inner surface of the back cover 180. The bracket receipt part 190 includes upper guides 187 a and 187 b, side guides 188 a, 188 b, 188 c, and 188 d, and lower guides 189 a, 189 b, and 189 c to guide the position of the shielding part 142. The bracket receipt part 190 further includes a plurality of back cover through holes 192 respectively provided in shapes corresponding to those of the input unit 123, the output unit 126, and the power input unit 129 of the main board 120 so as to expose the input unit 123, the output unit 126, and the power input unit 129 to the outside of the back cover 180.

FIG. 11 is a block diagram illustrating operating relations of a display device 1 in accordance with an exemplary embodiment of the present general inventive concept.

As shown in at least one exemplary embodiment of FIG. 11, control of the display device 1 may be achieved by a control unit 121 of the main board 120. Power to actuate the overall display device 1 is supplied to the control unit 121 through the power input unit 129 and is then transmitted to the inverter board 130 and the panel actuating part 116. An image signal and an audio signal from external equipment, such as a computer or a DVD player, are input to the control unit 121 through the input unit 123. If the display device 1 transmits a signal from the inside to the outside of the display device 1, the signal is transmitted to the outside of the display device 1 through the output unit 126.

The control unit 121 may control power supply to the back light unit 260 while transmitting a signal to, and receiving a signal from, the inverter board 130. Further, the control unit 121 may control operation of the display panel 210 and may supply power to the display panel 210 while transmitting a signal to, and receiving a signal from, the panel actuating part 116. As described above, the display device 1 may be operated via the main board 120.

As is apparent from the above description, a display device in accordance with at least one exemplary embodiment of the present general inventive concept improves an installation structure of a circuit board, while providing a compact structure.

Further, a slimmer display device may be achieved.
